One year down : )


Sunday the 23rd of November, was our 1 year anniversary! I know that I am a little late, but school has been crazy over the last week. I had a couple teachers trying to cram in projects and test right before the break! But now I am off for thanksgiving and I am so excited!

Our anniversary landed on a Sunday this year, so as for the actual day we had church and later that night went over to my friend from Scotland, Lu's place. We had a good time eating and playing games with each other. Saturday Jamie had a party he had for his Honor association, and Friday the same association had an activity for the school that he had to attend, but we went together on both occasions and had fun! And Jamie gave me beautiful flowers! We really did have fun even if we couldn't just go somewhere just the two of us. I cant believe that it has already been a year. It honestly feels like we just got married, in many ways, in others it feel like we have been married for years!! I think that is because of how well we know each other, yet we both know that there is so much more to learn. We are loving life, taking it one day at a time, and love each other dearly. I Love Jamie so much, and I am thankful that he made me laugh for the first time of many back in our psychology class over two years ago. In relief society on Sunday I announced that it was our 1 year anniversary, and right after me another lady announced that Monday will be her 50Th wedding anniversary! I just smiled and thought to myself. One down... 49 to go. I cant wait to make it to that point and beyond together. I love you babe!!

The Day the Music Died

So last night Jamie and I got to go to a musical at a theater in Orem. The Musical was Aida, by Elton John. I had never seen it before and it was a very good musical, although I will say that it is very clear that Elton John was one of the creators! LOL I really enjoyed going, but it really made me miss it all. For a couple of years now I keep telling myself that I am going to try out at the local musical theater company, and time and time again I chicken out. I just cant bring myself to do it. I don't know why, but I have never had that kind of confidence to just jump in and do it. Unfortunately I know that I miss a lot of opportunities because of it. It really made me start thinking about how since I have moved to Utah, music has slowly almost disappeared from my life, and last night really made me realize that I feel like some part of me is missing. Even if I don't join a musical, I am not part of a choir anymore, I don't have a piano, and barely see one anymore, in fact In the last year I have only sat down once, and really played the piano like I know and love. It really is quite frustrating, and I really feel lost. I often say to myself, well just fix it, go try out for a musical or what not, but I also have school and work and family, that I just don't think it is feasible. I really don't know what to do, but I know I need to do something because I think that I am starting to fade fast, and something so important, that made me get up each day and helped me get through the hell my life was from the time I was 8, is slowly disappearing. I almost feel like I have lost a child, my baby, and I am really down about it!

The day my husband drooled

It is official, I today committed and declared myself a Public Health Major with an Emphisis in Helath Promotion! I met with my councilor and went through the paper work, and what was even more exciting is, with this change I am even closer to graduating, infact I could actually graduate next December, but I will probably aim more for April! It is so close that I can taste it!

Jamie turns in his application for the Business school today, please keep him in your minds and prayers as this is a very big deal for us!!

I have to tell this funny story about Jamie last night, although it is kinda gross. Last night Jamie started having a horrible tooth ache that was just putting him through agony. I told him to put some oralgel ( if that is how it is spelled) and to come on the couch and lay down on my lap. So he was in so much pain that he put a lot of the stuff in in mouth and basically numbed his whole mouth. So he is laying his head down on my lap, I was wearing these short shorts that I wear around the house at night ( can you see where I am going with this?) about 15 min later I start to notice that something doesnt feel right and have him sit up. Lo and behold my entire leg was COVERED!! in his syliva. Jamie had been drooling for who know how long and because he was so numb he couldn't tell! I was completely soaked but was laughing so hard because he was so out of it!!

Well just a little note to let you all know all is well in the James Household, untill next time....
